Valentine’s Day can be more than just romantic love, but true, kind, caring love for your neighbors and those in need. How can you lead a more altruistic life this week?
Beginning February 8 through March 2, Customers in the Florence area can donate to Boys & Girls Clubs of the Pee Dee Area during checkout at their local Ross Dress for Less (“Ross”) Store. The Ross Stores Foundation will match donations, up to $500,000, in addition to support that Ross provides Boys & Girls Clubs of America throughout the year. Customers’ donations will go toward the Club’s Power Hour program, providing homework help and academic resources to Club youth in Florence, Hartsville, Hemingway, Lake City, Pamplico, and Timmonsville, and across the country.

Sgt. Priscilla Zimmerman * from the 70s
Looking back, before attending the Club, my dreams and opportunities were limited, but once there I learned self-respect and self-worth and the whole world opened up for me.
-
Michael Woods * from the 90s
The Club has provided me with a lot of my “first” experiences: traveling in and out of SC, staying overnight in a hotel, riding on an airplane, and even my first job. I don’t know where I would have ended up had it not been for the Club.
